Kingston man, 19, injured by reversing SUV

KINGSTON, Ont. - Kingston police have charged a 44-year-old man after he allegedly reversed a vehicle outside of a convenience store, narrowly missing a mother and young child, and struck a pedestrian on the other side of the street.

Police say a black SUV was reversing out of a parking lot Tuesday night (on Division Street and Stephen Street) and continued reversing at high speed despite the close call.

They say the driver fled the scene after it struck a 19-year-old pedestrian, who was facing away from the SUV.

Police say the vehicle drove over the man and dragged him a short distance before he was released.

He suffered multiple serious injuries and was brought to hospital.
